Keep of His Journey and Sojourn at
tho Famous Health Resort.
About four weeks ago Mr.. Charles d. Keep,
the proprietor of the Wall Street Daily NciUs,
discovered that the enormous sales attained
by the wonderful K-wren Remedies had cre-
ated for him vast amount OF business In ad-
diton to his Wall street operations SO great
was the strain caused by the extraordinary
success attained by the remedy Mr. Keep had
been the means OF introducing to the public
that his health began to give way under It.
Like many n busy man before him, Mr.. Keep
was suddenly brought up with n round turn by
| terrible nervous chill, which seized him one
evening. The attack was 50 severe that II
nearly proved fatal and he discovered the un-
| welcome fact while he had been so intensely
| interested in placing his new remedies within
| the reach OF all sufferers from all bronchial
troubles, he had permitted his own bodily
| system to run down so much that he was likely
| to die.
| In this emergency Mr.. Keep realized that
| the only way to recover health and strength
| was to cut loose from Wall street speculattons
| and the K.Wren remedies aud go TO some
| place where ho could obtain perfect rest and
| build up again. Acting with his usual prompt
| ness, Mr.. Keep went at express railroad speei
to the Hot Springs In Arkansas, believing
them TO be the greatest resource In the world
| for restoring nervous exhaustion. In order to
| secure complete immunity from all business
| cares be left orders at the Office of the WIl
sired Ddiiy Nelrs that neither stock quotations
| nor any details OF K-Wren business be sent him
| during his absence, as he wished to attain a
hrstclass physical condition as soon as possi-
| BILE.
He arrived at the Hot Springs early in April,
| securing rooms for himself and family at the
Arlington Hotel, the best in that notable resort.
